    Advanced commissioning 6.5 Motor control 6.5.2.6 Moment of inertia estimator Background From the load moment of inertia and the speed setpoint change, the inverter calculates the accelerating torque required for the motor. Via the speed controller precontrol, the accelerating torque specifies the main percentage of the torque setpoint. The speed controller corrects inaccuracies in the precontrol (feed-forward control).

    The inverter must measure the pole position for motors not equipped with an encoder, or for encoders, which do not supply the information regarding the pole position. If you are using a Siemens motor, then the inverter automatically selects the appropriate technique to determine the pole position, and when required starts the pole position identification.
